JACUSTOMER-lemj1nxy- :They say the engine failed because of a known fault with the particular type of engine.But it only covered 700 miles since they rebuilt it and they should have known about known fault being professional engine builders.

Alex Watts :You need to write and set out your losses and request they repair or pay you the repair cost within 14 days or say you will go to Court within 14 days. You should make sure you send this signed delivery and keep a copy.

Alex Watts :If they do not then you can issue proceedings in the County Court. You can either do this online at: www.moneyclaim.gov.uk or by completing form N1 http://hmctsformfinder.justice.gov.uk/courtfinder/forms/n001-eng.pdf and take it to your local County Court.

Alex Watts :The Court will then issue a claim which a copy will be sent to the Defendant who will have a limited time to defend it, if not you can enter Judgment and enforce.

Alex Watts :If the claim is for £10,000 or less it will be a small claim so you will not need legal representation. Over this value you would need representation for trial.

Alex Watts :Can I clarify anything for you about this today please?

JACUSTOMER-lemj1nxy- :The situation is the customer came to me with the engine fault I removed the engine and the company who rebuilt the engine were paid directly by the customer can I make a claim as I had no contract with the rebuilder?

Alex Watts :Yes you can If you are being sued.

Alex Watts :does that help
